Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using sliced beef, pat dry, coarsely chop, then separate pieces. Stir occasionally until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Stem kale and coarsely chop.

    Halve and peel onion. Cut halves into 1/4" dice.

    Pat shrimp dry. Season all over with piri piri seasoning (use less if spice-averse) and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    Place a large pot over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add shrimp to hot pot. Cook until pink and shrimp reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2-3 minutes per side.

    Transfer shrimp to a plate. Keep pot over medium-high heat; no need to wipe clean.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    Add 2 tsp. olive oil and onions to hot pot. Stir occasionally until tender and slightly browned, 6-8 minutes.

    Add kale, garlic salt, and a pinch of pepper. Stir occasionally until combined and kale is wilted, 2-3 minutes. Not everyone loves kale; feel free to reduce or modify to taste.

  4. 4

    Add Broth and Cook Orzo

    Add fire roasted tomatoes, vegetable base, 3/4 tsp. salt, and 4 cups water. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.

    Once boiling, add orzo and cook until al dente, 6-8 minutes.

    Add shrimp and stir occasionally until combined, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  5. 5

    Broil Ciabatta and Finish Dish

    In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter and cheese. Evenly spread butter mixture on cut sides of ciabatta.

    Place ciabatta, cut sides up, directly on oven rack under hot broiler until slightly browned, 2-3 minutes.

    Don't text and broil! Keep an eye on oven as bread may burn easily under broiler.

    Carefully remove from broiler. Ciabatta will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping soup with pesto. Slice bread diagonally, if desired. Bon appétit!
